Top Things to do in Kutna Hora
Top 10 Sights & Landmarks in Kutna Hora, Bohemia
A popular daytrip destination from Prague, Kutna Hora offers spectacular faded grandeur without the capital's madding crowds. The financial center of Bohemia until the silver ore ran out, Kutna Hora once rivaled Prague's magnificence. The site of Wenceslas II's Royal Mint in 1308, the town was added to UNESCO's World Heritage list in 1996. Saint Barbara's cathedral and the eerie Kostnice bone church, decorated with disconcerting sculptures of the bones of plague victims, are main attractions.

Imagine a house through which you can freely wander, from the basement to the attic. A house with historic elements, which are combined with modern architecture and technologies, such as touch screens, motion sensors and games for children. That all is the Dacicky House. A centre which presents UNESCO monuments, explains their value and the reason why they are to be protected.

This Gothic church, located in the middle of a cemetery, dates from the end of the 13th century; in 1698, it was rebuilt in the Baroque style. Sedlec ossuary, a small chapel located in the graveyard of the Church of All Saints, is decorated with the bones of more than 40,000 people.

It was quite a unique experience, there are 9 bone chapels in Europe. It has a great history behind it. The church is decorated with bones and skulls. IT is creepy and fascinating at the same time to see and walk around the church. It is a must visit and is hardly an hour drive from Prague.

We took a day trip to Kutna Hora from Prague and it was lovely to get out of the city for a day and enjoy the quiet and beauty of this village. It was easy to access by train and well worth the visit.

Kutna Hora is a lovely city not far from Prague. St Barbara’s Cathedral is amazing. Take a day trip when you visit the Czech Capital. Stroll on the Promenade,in the town centre, there are beautifully restored Baroque and Rococo-style buildings some with Medieval characters. If you want to taste the traditional Czech cuisine visit Restaurace Dučicky and drink a pint of Kutna Hora beer. Excellent food, huge portions, good service, reasonable price.(plus 10% price off- voucher in their chocolate shop). Don’t miss this little gem, a really charming city with lots to explore and enjoy.

This picturesque polygonal fountain, built by architect Matyá Rejsek in 1496, is located in the center of scenic Rejsek Square.

This Gothic Stone Fountain is situated right in the central square. A beautiful piece of architecture that was probably used to gather water for humans and animals.
